Tattooed.

So last night I shared a wonderful bond with my bro over a tattoo gun on my

forearm. The tattoo took as long as one SNFU album (something green and

leafy this way comes) and two Minor Threat albums. Quality time with family… there is nothing better.

Nick and Dustin were both quite happy with my

A Collection of Tattoo Guns

little knitted tokens of thanks, if I am lead to believe correctly. The guys at Five Fathoms are solid and Ben stayed late to allow Nicko to finish up on me. Nice guys.

Lastly, I positively love love LOVE my new tattoo. It’s just so… ME! My favourite part is the simple addition of the little sparkles that Nick added. They really make it, and also tie it to the four point stars that surround the Nuu Chah Nulth moon a bit further up on my arm.

About the Great Canadian Pop Cultural Intarsia Series

Suggestions are starting to come in for my Great Can Pop Cult Int Series. My goal is to make a whole shwack of knitted panels featuring Canadian pop cultural icons and to use these panels as an exhibition. So far, I've heard:
Margaret Atwood
Leonard Cohen
the CBC Logo
Douglas Coupland
Romeo Dallaire
Terry Fox
Chief Dan George
Paul Gross
Rick Hansen
the Hanson Brothers
Gordon Lightfoot
Sook-Yin Lee
Peter Mansbridge
Kate McGarrigle (log driver's waltz)
Bob and Doug McKenzie
Christopher Plummer
David Suzuki
Pierre Trudeau
Neil Young
But I'd love to hear more ideas. I want to know who *YOU* think should be included and WHY! Send me your suggestions so I can immortalize your favourite Canadian in knitting.
